Despite more than 400,000 customers having shown interest in buying the new Model 3, Tesla Motors has yet to release an online configurator for the entry-level EV.
However, a designer saw an opportunity here and is now allowing users to build their very own Tesla Model 3, based on the prototype version. The online configurator shows a car close to the San Francisco Golden Gate and offers a choice of nine exterior colors, from Solid Black to Pearl White and from Deep Blue Metallic to Red Multi-Coat.
Those interested in personalizing Tesla’s latest product can also choose between two sets of wheels, the Silver Turbine and Grey Turbine, both 20-inches in size, but that’s about it, as clicking on the Interior button will reveal a picture of a Millenium Falcon’s cockpit, accompanied by the words “Check back again soon…”
“This site was encouraged by fans and created by an eager Model 3 reservation holder. It is intended to be fun. This site is in no way affiliated with Tesla Motors. All photos depict fan made mockups of prototype vehicles“, as the Info section explains.
The Tesla Model 3 will have a $35,000 starting price and is scheduled to hit the assembly line late next year. If everything goes to plan with no delays, then the first units are expected to arrive with their owners by the end of 2017.
